Why do narcissists need you to depend on them? In this video, Lee Hammock explains how a narcissistic or controlling person may fear being replaceable and try to create emotional, financial, sexual, or practical dependence. Learn why withholding affection, delaying support, rushing commitment, controlling choices, and creating obstacles can make someone feel powerful or needed. This pattern is not love or partnership. It is often about control, validation, and making it harder for you to walk away. Understanding the pattern can help you rebuild independence and protect your peace.
